The Anarchos of Holetown is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, renowned for its frequent executions, complete lack of prisons, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless population of 30.353 billion Holetownians enjoy some of the most opulent lifestyles in the region, unless they are unemployed or working-class, in which case they are variously starving to death or crippled by easily preventable diseases.

The minute, liberal, pro-business government, or what there is of one, is solely concerned with Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Holetown. Income tax is unheard of.

The frighteningly efficient Holetownian economy, worth a remarkable 5,594 trillion barbadian dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Pizza Delivery, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 184,329 barbadian dollars, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,574,918 per year while the poor average 3,759, a ratio of 418 to 1.

Policy reversals are more often graceful demi-détournés than u-turns, those who don't have a bean to spend don't know a bean about Brasilistanian coffee beans, both vegetables and viruses are often smuggled across the border, and the government is funneling billions into Cape Holetown following the shuttle crash. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Holetown's national animal is the lion, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Holetown is ranked 307,068th in the world and 12,677th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 2.7 law-abiding acts per hour.
